fit to bring this matter to the Senate and for the Senate to express its thanks and compliments to the Rt. Hon. Raila Amolo Odinga, President William Ruto and the new Chairperson of the African Union Commission. Rt. Hon. Raila Odinga was Kenya’s best that we sent to the continental stage.

Every other time that a Kenyan is out there on the international or continental stage, I remember when Faith Kipyegon was breaking the 1,500 metres world record, all Kenyans stood up in unison, cheering her. I remember Kenyans cheering Mr. David Rudisha and the great run that he made to win the 800 metres championship. I think that record has not been broken. All Kenyans rose in unison to celebrate a great Kenyan. I remember even Ms. Beatrice Chebet, who broke the 5,000 metres world record and went ahead to break the 10,000 metres female world record, Kenyans stood up ...

Some think that by throwing barbs at him online and composing small inshas and compositions, they will deter the fighting and indomitable spirit of our enigma, Hon. Raila Amolo Odinga. Hon. Raila Amolo Odinga, please take your time, relax and make phone calls to your fellow leaders across Africa to thank them for the vote that they gave you. Take time to reflect.

President William Ruto, we thank you because you walked the talk. You walked with a candidate. You opened doors for the candidate and allowed Raila Amolo Odinga, despite the political competition, to be a candidate for Kenya, rather than a candidate for any political formation. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Sessional Paper on Kenya’s Foreign Policy was laid on the Table of this House last week by the Senate Majority Leader. We now have an opportunity to weigh in on Kenya’s foreign policy. I know that my colleague, the Senator for Kisii, Sen. Onyonka, is one of the most exposed ...

many ambassadors who look with contempt at Members of Parliament (MPs). I can confirm that everywhere I found Amb. Amayo, he was very respectful to Parliament. He is now Kenya’s representative to the AU in the area of reforms. He is a seasoned diplomat. I hope working together with President Ruto, they will deal with key issues that need to be transformed at the AUC. In Africa, there are still a lot of challenges that we must ask the new AUC Chair to settle down and not to be drawn into Kenya’s political and toxic social media wars. He should ...
